The semiconductor ZnO has gained substantial interest in the research community in part
because of its large exciton binding energy (60 meV) which could lead to lasing action …

We present a review of current research on the optical properties of ZnO nanostructures. We
provide a brief introduction to different fabrication methods for various ZnO nanostructures …

Since the successful demonstration of a blue light-emitting diode (LED), potential materials
for making short-wavelength LEDs and diode lasers have been attracting increasing interest …

ZnO nanorod arrays were fabricated using a hydrothermal method. The nanorods were
studied by scanning electron microscopy, photoluminescence (PL), time-resolved PL, X-ray …

The optical properties of a high quality bulk ZnO, thermally post treated in a forming gas
environment are investigated by temperature dependent continuous wave and time …

ZnO tetrapod nanostructures have been prepared by the evaporation of Zn in air (no flow),
dry and humid argon flow, and dry and humid nitrogen flow. Their properties have been …

TiO2 bilayer films with a normal surface (Ns-TiO2), surface defects (Sd-TiO2), and interface
defects (Id-TiO2) were successfully prepared by a combination of cold plasma treatment …

In this short topical review, a brief account of the evolution of defects due to controlled
changes in polycrystalline zinc oxide has been presented. X-ray diffraction, Positron …

There has been significant recent interest in the use of surface-functionalized thin film and
nanowire wide bandgap semiconductors, principally GaN, InN, ZnO and SiC, for sensing of …
